Státní okresní archiv Karlovy Vary 
The Karlovy Vary District Archive was established on the basis of the Government Decree No. 29 in 1954 and became a professional facility of the ONV Karlovy Vary. Gradually, the town registries of Abertam, Bečov nad Teplou, Bochov, Doupov, Jáchymov, Nejdek, Ostrov and Žlutice were transferred to it, as well as fonds from the former political districts of Nejdek (until 1949) and Jáchymov (until 1951). In 1960, the district archive of Toužim ceased to exist and the fonds of the former political districts of Teplá and Žlutice that had been in its care were transferred to the Karlovy Vary District Archive. In 1971–1972, the district archive was moved to the former primary school in Rybáře, where it has been located in very cramped conditions to this day. A new archive building is planned for the future.

In 1990, the Archive was removed from the portfolio of the ONV Interior Department and subordinated directly to the head of the Karlovy Vary District Office. On 1 July 2002, it became an internal organizational unit of the State Regional Archive in Pilsen.
